Teacher Strategies for Classroom Management in a One-to-One Lesson
Before the Lesson
Check to make sure that all students’ accounts are active; be aware of any students who may have restricted access for some reason.
Know student login information. Be mindful of special naming situations.
Test sites and programs before the lesson to help you anticipate problems. Remember to run the check on a student device. Some settings and privileges are set differently on a teacher machine.
During the Lesson
Remind students of AUP, citizenship, and safety expectations.
Have students use their assigned computer or the same computer whenever possible.
Follow established rules and procedures.
Be consistent with expectations and consequences.
Move around the room to offer additional instruction/direction, and to monitor student work, but do not stay too long at any one workstation. There is no substitute for a mobile, vigilant teacher.
If available, use a projection system for instruction. Students will be able to see the instructor’s computer and follow directions visually.
Use common vocabulary.
Have student's close computer to a 45 degree angle when instructions are given or attention is needed.
After the Lesson
Turn in any necessary technology work orders.
Be consistent with follow up feedback and grading.
Note any changes or corrections needed before the next class.
